Villa Ainola 

Saariniemi Estate - Rovaniemi - Lake Vanttausjärvi

Villa Ainola – Your Private Peace by the Lake

Villa Ainola is located on Saariniemi's private peninsula by Lake Vanttausjärvi,  55 km from Rovaniemi. Here, you can enjoy complete privacy — surrounded by nature, yet without compromising comfort.

In winter, the landscape transforms into a quiet snow-covered world. From the villa, you can step directly into snowshoeing or traditional forest skiing, and the frozen lake offers space for independent Arctic adventures. On clear nights, the Northern Lights can often be seen directly from the yard.

In summer, the shallow sandy shoreline is ideal for families. A private rowing boat, lawn area and lakeside fire pit are exclusively available for your stay.

The villa was carefully renovated in 2019, combining modern comfort with the peaceful atmosphere of a lakeside retreat. Large windows bring the surrounding nature into the living space throughout the year.
